I dunno, I liked some of it, not sure its really worth seeing in the theater though.

She looks ugh? lol, she is still incredibly gorgeous and sexy. Are her knees too sharp?

i'll check it out. without having seen it, the way they put "bullet bending" in the promos looks really fucking stupid. the whole concept of it just seems too cheesy. it seems as if some idiot was sitting in his basement coming up with random ideas while high. maybe it isn't quite like that in the film.

i thought the same thing from the previews, but to be honest, the bullet bending is a small part of the movie. it only happens a handful of times.

Those fucking comic books.

Holy shit, a comic book movie that isn't a documentary about physics!

People who don't want to see how glaringly obvious it is that James McAvoy has no martial arts/knife fighting skills whatsoever, probably. I'm no fan of shaky cam either, but I really only noticed it being bad in the knife fights.

Also I am serious non-fan of Jolie, I think she's waaaaaay past her prime here and looks just ugh.

Weird, I thought she looked better in this than she has in any movie since Hackers, and to me that's saying a lot.

i don't care if they obey the laws of physics. it just seems like a stupid, cheesy thing. it's like when other movies come out and they showcase some "nifty" idea they had for the movie so that it would stand out as being cool, new, and hip.

it reminds me of tv crime/law dramas in a sense. it's the same shit over and over, but this time the detective is blind, or a woman with quirks, or in 1972, or sees visions, or is a dirty cop but likable, etc...

but as i said that's just the impression the trailer gives. i'm not giving the movie a thumbs down.

[Mythas]

yeah guys, im working on a new comic series. The character is a normal human just like you and I! The comic will feature exciting elements like browsing fourms, and studying physics so he can poke holes in all of the check your brain at the door entertainment.

Like this guy is so cool that if he gets in a fight, there is a 50/50 chance he'll lose as the only training he has had is watching cool shit on tv and the movies.

Oh yeah and if he jumps out of an airplane he falls in EXACT accordance to all the laws of gravity / nature / motion wtf ever.

You guys have no idea how awesomely mundane this will be! Just help me with a character name, im thinking joe or bob...Though legulazz has a ring to it.

The bullet bending wasn't in the comic books.

In the comic books it was just perfect aim.

[GrobbeeTrull2.0]

Well, hitting targets around corners is perfect aim!

[Goltana_R-Zek]

Some people didn't like the bullet bending, I dunno why everyone has to throw out the OMG IGNORE PHYSICS card every time there's a complaint about it. It does seem kinda cheesy, film is still good despite it though. You get upset like bullet bending saved your family from a tragic accident as a child and have to stand vigilant in its defense, lmao.

[Vorph]

Because it's about as retarded as seeing a preview for Hancock and complaining that Will Smith having super strength and being able to fly is unrealistic...

[Kolle]

nothing like that at all. nothing wrong with giving a character super powers. that doesn't mean all super powers are interesting. bending bullets is one of those that's fucking silly.

it's right up there with confetti and sparkles shooting out of hands.

[Vorph]

It's just like a form of telekinesis, I fail to see what the big deal worth bitching about is. Plus it's only even used a handful of times in the movie anyway.
